Consider each of the following reactions and decide whether the standard entropy
change for the reaction will be, (a) Positive; or (b) Very close to Zero; or (c) Negative.
N2 (g) + 3 H2 (g) = 2 NH3
(g)
2 Na (1) + H2 (g) = 2 NaH (s)
%3D
Cu (s) + 2 H2SO4 (aq) =
1. negative
CusO4 (aq) + 2 H20 (1) +
SO2 (g)
2. positive
PCI5 (s) = PC|3 (s) + Cl2 (g)
